A special train left the Beauregard
Street Depot at half-past six o'clock with
at least thirty-fve of the invited guests,
a few more being added at Prichard's Sta
ton, and at Whistler the coach was filled
until standing room was in demand. But
IN a few minutes the beautiful Myers
place was reached where the blazing rosin
torches on the lawn gave the magnificent
trees that surrounded them u peculiar
glare, and the illuminated country resi-
dence with the stir and hustle gave evil
dence that something unusual would
transpire at the quiet Myers place. Am
pie time was allo we'd the tram guests to
rest aud rearrange their toilets and be in
troduced to the -unacquaiu5ed before the
performance OF the ceremony, which took
place in a densely crowded parlor. 1t was
prettily and pleasantly performed.
OF course congratulations followed and
were continued until we began to sympa-
thize with the fair bride and we for once
appreciated the force of the remark
''Ssve me from my friends!"
in another room was = table built in
cross shape and placed ~diagonally which
was ladened, or to be more emphatic, heay-
lily loaded, with substantials and delica-
cies that would require an educated cdis-
ine aided by a fashionable confectioner to
describe, all of which was under the man
agement of those excellent ladies, Mrs.
Judd, Mrs. Mitternight and Mrs. Wirth.
80 numerous were the friends of the bridal
party that these tables had to be replen-
ished several times, aud yet the store was
abundantly supplied, aud all was as inner
ry as u marriage bell"

vocal and instrumental music by some of
the noted amateurs of that vicinity.
While strOlling beneath a magnificent ar
Dor aud chatting with many pretty aud
very entertaining young ladies, not for
getting many handsome aud pleasant mar
ried ones, time passed rapidly, aud the
train that was to convey us home came
TOO But a merrier party never
boarded a train, which was landed safely
home between the little hours of the next
lnern.
The bride aud her attendants were hand
attired in white aud were the re-
of many compliments. The pres
